Review Summary:

There is so much free quality content here it’s ridiculous. This site offers 8 shows that you can watch all for free. Tastytrade is a financial network that is created by the same people who made thinkorswim, a company bought by Ameritrade. The shows are mainly about stocks and options with some occasional futures mixed in. And they even trade during the shows. They also offer an app that streams trades right to your phone or tablet, but the app is the only thing that comes at a premium.

This site features:

The following are descriptions for all their shows.

Get Tasted

Aired Mon–Fri | LIVE 7:00–11:00 am/CT

In their own words:

Cut through the noise pumped out of every pore of the usual financial media with our flagship show that started it all. Tom Sosnoff and Tony Battista take their decades of experience and translate it so you can make the most of any market. Their daily four-hour program also includes interviews with entrepreneurs, Best Practices, Market Measures, Good Trade Bad Trade and much more. Bottom line? Increasing your probability of success – that’s a good trade.

This was their first show. The hosts are two very experienced traders. I think you are going to especially like the interviews. But most of all this show will help your probability of success.

The LIZ and JNY Show

Aired Mon–Fri | LIVE 11:00 am-12:00 pm/CT

In their own words:

Ex-market makers (and Moms) Liz and Jenny show you that it takes less time than you think to do more with your money. They break down the trades so you know what to do and why to do it. But this isn’t preschool, this is where smart traders get smarter. Go ahead, sharpen that pencil.

A show targeted at traders with experience, but that want to learn more. Two very sharp ladies are the hosts of this show.

Ask SLM

Aired Mon–Fri | LIVE 12–1:00 pm/CT

In their own words:

Veteran trader, hedge fund manager and mentor Steve Miller is better known around these parts as Slim, although his market insights are anything but. Slim looks at everything—charts, news, technology, temperament and more—to create a complete picture of the markets. And every day at 12:45pm, he takes calls at 855-238-2789 from listeners looking for more wins.

This host is a veteran trader that has a wide interest in everything connected with trading. And for an hour long he will talk about his wide view of the markets. If you want to talk to this hedge fund manager you can during the show, because he accepts calls no a special number you can call to get on the show.

This show is very good for people who want to learn to trade. It follows A dad (host of another Tastytrade show) teaching his daughter about trading. These videos walk you through almost all questions beginners have when starting to trade or when you have not started trading yet.

In their own words:

This is a show for kids. Teaching them about money and investing.

You can see what they think about Strategy, max loss, max profit, probability of profit, expiration and capital requirement for that day.

Below it you can find their “Good Trade Checklist”, which walks you through liquidity, volatility, price-action, expiration, probability and protection. It is a more textual explanation of the data in the tables offered above.

Below that, they describe their thoughts on why trading this seems logical to them.

Cherry Bomb
